Edmonton Oilers Ladies Donate The 'Shirts Off Our Backs'

The Edmonton Oilers Ladies are once again getting into the holiday spirit, and are determined to make this another very, merry Christmas for the Edmonton Christmas Bureau with the 2005 edition of Shirts Off Our Backs.

At the Oilers home games on Monday, December 19 (vs. Calgary), and Friday, December 23 (vs. Los Angeles), the Edmonton Oilers Ladies will be collecting donations on the concourse for the Christmas Bureau of Edmonton. With each contribution, fans will be entered into a game day raffle to win an autographed Oilers jersey. Jerseys from each of the players on the current Oilers roster will be awarded during the two games (23 in total).

This holiday season will mark the 19th Christmas campaign run by the Edmonton Oilers Ladies in support of the Christmas Bureau. In the previous 18 years over $200,000 has been raised for the Christmas Bureau to help provide Christmas food hampers for needy Edmonton families.

Single tickets are still available for the December 19th game against the Calgary Flames, while fans can still purchase pairs for the Friday, December 23rd game against the Los Angeles Kings. Edmonton Oilers tickets are available at all Ticketmaster locations, online at www.edmontonoilers.com, or by calling (780) 414-GOAL.
